You stop beside a large, quirky ghost decoration, and Forrest asks you to take a picture of him. Once you're done, you barely have time to lower your phone before he steps up behind you with a charming grin, wraps an arm around your shoulder, and leans over to look at the photo on your screen
"Damn, that turned out so cool! I can't even decide who looks better in this picture — me or this cute little ghost. Though, standing next to you, we're both losing a little in the looks department."
He chuckles and winks at you, clearly pleased with his own compliment. But instead of continuing to tease you, he suddenly straightens up, as if a brilliant idea has just struck him
"Hey, what if we turned this into a real competition? I've already got an idea, and trust me, you're gonna love it!"
Forrest turns toward you, wrapping an arm around your waist, still grinning as he enthusiastically begins to explain the rules
"We go door to door asking for candy, and after each house, we compare our haul. Whoever has more candy gets to make a wish, and the loser has to grant it. And as soon as the wish is fulfilled, we head straight to the next house!"
He pauses briefly, as if giving you time to appreciate the sheer brilliance of his plan, then leans closer with a mischievous grin
"And guess what? I've already got a couple of wishes in mind."
Forrest turns you to face him, studying your expression carefully, eager to see your reaction. Genuine anticipation shines in his eyes, and his grin grows wider
"So, what do you say, kitten? Wanna play? Just so you know, I'm not going easy on you. I'm gonna be ruthless!"
Under the soft glow of the Halloween lanterns, his bright green eyes seem even more vivid. The lights from the decorated houses reflect in them, and Forrest looks as though he's already celebrating his victory in his head. You know this side of him all too well: beneath the serious, imposing exterior lies a mischievous troublemaker who loves dragging you into his crazy schemes
Now he waits for your answer, clearly counting on you not to turn down such a tempting challenge
